Subject:      loop syntax

Hi,

I am trying to produce some syntax which will do a number of
scatterplots with the same dependent Y variable each time plotted
against a number of X variables which are adjacent to each other in the
dataset.

I have produced some simple syntax which I thought would do this:
LOOP #I=SALBEGIN TO PREVEXP.
GRAPH
  /SCATTERPLOT(BIVAR)=salbegin WITH #I
  /MISSING=LISTWISE .
END LOOP.

Is this possible to do and why does the above give me the
following error:
Error # 4095.  Command name: GRAPH
>The transformations program contains an
unclosed LOOP, DO IF, or complex
>file structure.  Use the level-of-control
shown to the left of the SPSS
>commands to determine the range of LOOPs and
DO IFs.
>This command not executed.

Thanks in advance,
Paul
